Join us at the Kingston Free Library as Professor Stanley Carpenter, published author, retired U.S. Navy Captain, and current professor at the Naval War College in Newport, RI gives a four part lecture on WWII.

Part II – Air and Sea – Battles of Britain and the Atlantic, 1939-43 – Wednesday, 23 January 2019

This lecture covers the sea Battle of the Atlantic from 1939-1943 and the air Battle of Britain in 1940-41.Without significant surface naval forces to confront the British Royal Navy, the German Navy or Kriegsmarine conducted a commerce war against Britain using their submarine (U-boat) forces. The Battle of the Atlantic against Allied shipping between 1940 and 1943 threatened to knock Britain out of the war before the United States became fully engaged. In the air, once France fell, Germany attempted to invade southern England, but had to destroy the British Royal Air Force (RAF) first. They failed as the RAF held on to defeat the German Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain.

Registration is preferred. To register, call 783-8254 or email bobertello@skpl.org
